The Defense Intelligence Agency is requesting proposals for an IT contract worth up to $6 billion.

The Enhanced Solutions for the Information Technology Enterprise (E-SITE) contract will provide IT services for DIA, combatant commands, the intelligence requirements of the military services, and “partner agency worldwide missions across the intelligence community,” said the notice of the draft request for proposals (RFP) . There will be multiple contract awards for large and small businesses, with contracts for a base period plus four option years.

E-SITE will provide “system design, development, fielding, and sustainment of global intelligence and command and control (C2) assets vital to the security of the United States,” said the draft RFP. The work will vary between different agencies and task orders, but the draft RFP does include a long list of potential services, including incident management, release and deployment management, IT operations, and quality assurance.
